The collation of President Wilson’s various statements on the war (America and Freedom, pp, xv + 76. Allen and Unwin, 1s, net) appears opportunely. At a moment when the question of mobilising our war aims for a political offensive has been brought into prominence by Lord Lansdowne, one may well be grateful for this handy conspectus of America’s lucid expositions of the Allied ideal. It contains the sanest and truest presentment of our cause which has yet been given. Its value, however, would have been greatly enhanced by the inclusion of the Allies’ answer to President Wilson’s Note last December, although an admirable introduction by Viscount Grey and two speeches by Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. Asquith respectively reproduce the sense, if not the details, of that document.
